SINGAPORE (Oct 25): Yanlord Land Group, the China-based property developer, has made an offer to pay $2.60 for each United Engineers share it does not own. Wholly-owned subsidiary Yanlord Investment (Singapore) (YIS) made the mandatory offer when it became UE’s largest shareholder at 35.27% after buying over Perennial Real Estate Holdings’ (PREH) and Heng Yue Holdings’ stakes in UE for a total of $229.7 million.

It plans to pay cash for the shares it does not own at S$2.6 per share - a mandatory offer triggered after one of its units bought United Engineers stock owned by Perennial UW and Heng Yue Holdings. Yanlord now owns 35.27% of United Engineers. The S$2.6 per share price is the same price offered in a bid made a little over two years ago by Yanlord and Perennial Real Estate Holdings <PERE.SI> - a deal that failed after the consortium only gained shareholder acceptances representing just 1.4% of United Engineers' ordinary shares https://www.reuters.com/article/united-eng-ma/update-1-yanlord-perennials-offer-for-singapores-united-engineers-fails-idUSL4N1M103S.

It plans to pay cash for the shares it does not own at S$2.6 per share - a mandatory offer triggered after one of its units bought United Engineers stock owned by Perennial UW and Heng Yue Holdings. Yanlord now owns 35.27% of United Engineers.
